Me three I always pronounced Uttoxeter as ewe-tox-i-ter

Nah I was too busy watching a wee 'soccer' game involving Sydney and some other diddy wee team....

The Wallabies finally turned up and put in a good performance. I've only seen the Beast play against the Lions and the last Aussie game and this was the first time I've seen him well and truly beaten in the scrum. You still need a bonus point (as well as two victories) to draw level though?

Aye right! I was so bored I left to do the washing up. Commando is on just now perfect pre-football entertainment. 24 frickin years old though! "I eat Green Berets for breakfast. And right now, I'm very hungry! "

He's Just Not That Into You - pish 3/10. I told the wife it was a chick flick before it started, she said that a friend of a friend had loved and he'd found it really funny. He was the exception, I am the rule. The only things that kept my interest were Connelly, Aniston and Johansson.

I've eaten toast, chicken noodle soup and the odd banana for the last week (due to illness). Am absolutely Hank Marvin.

This Saturday, given their abject failure last weekend at Union and cricket, I don't think the locals are really looking forward to it.

I wondered when you'd appear! Did watch the game, whatever the All Blacks put in their tea at half time should be tested. They were unlucky to have 2 tries chalked off but that McGraw bloke is a bit of a niggly get.

Prawn fajitas

Back to back defeats to the Boks, what's the word on the All Blacks street kiwififer?

I see Massone's last appointment before administration was a new PR guru There is no panic, Livingston will win the SPL next season , the Champions League the season after that then we will crush all before us...

Aye but who on P&B isn't?!

Indeed, many happy returns to cbhaf(26), HGG(30) & Nizzy(28)

Not sure if this has been posted before but this site is excellent for mapping your run Clicky

State of Origin 2 just about to kick off. Am hopeful for a Blue win but think the Maroons will shade it.

46min jog across the Sydney Harbour Bridge and back home, unsure of the distance but it was pretty far!

How would that affect the current squad? Are many of them based overseas?

Sir Edmund Hillary, Dame Kiri Te Kanawa, Sam Neill, Neil Finn, Xena Warrior Princess, nous les avons battus tous, kiwififer pouvez-vous entendre moi? kiwififer vos garçons ont pris un enfer d'un battement.

Pretty much what the aussie media are currently saying. Apparently it was a pretty small offence which would usually involve a fine or a smack on the wrist but it's his continual problems that have made this the 'straw that has broken the camel's back'. His contract extension from Cricket Australia is to be withdrawn and it will be the end for him and Australia.......but he'll probably be back IMH unqualified O!

It has been yes, absolutely tipping it down. Seaforth eh? You're not a million miles from me in Neutral Bay. Are you here on holiday or more permanently?

Have fun tonight, hope the Blues pump yer adopted team. Not for this thread but is there a 'state of origin' for aussie rules?

I had to have a full medical and chemical bath before I was allowed to cross the border back into NSW!

How have you been recently? Any flu like symptoms?

State of Origin 1 tonight (New South Wales v Queensland). Have slowly been getting into league since I arrived so will watch it.

Jeez are Neighbours that desperate for ratings?
